Plaza de Santo Domingo, Mexico City

Are you in need of a love letter to send to that someone special? Look no further, for this is the place for you. The Portal de los Evangelistas is full of scribes who will type your letter for a set fee. Much of their work is dedicated to exalted hearts, just like in the Márquez novel Love in Times of Cholera . Also found in the plaza are the Palacio de la Inquisición, which now houses a nursery school, and the church of Santo Domingo, which are all that remains of New Spain's first Dominican convent.
